Clean Eating Mexican Taco Meat

Whoever thought it was possible to limit tacos to Tuesday clearly never tried them stuffed with incredibly tasty clean eating Mexican taco meat!

I don’t think I’ve ever met a person that didn’t love tacos and the great thing with tacos is you can make them as healthy as you’d like. I typically use lean ground turkey or chicken for my taco meat and PERDUE® FIT & EASY® Fresh Ground Turkey or Chicken Breast is my meat of choice. A lot of chicken companies cut corners by feeding their chickens all sorts of animal by-products. But PERDUE® chickens are always fed a 100% vegetarian diet and they never use added hormones or steroids. It’s quality stuff, people! 🙂

Not only does PERDUE® care about their products, they are also passionate about ensuring there are no families going hungry. The fun fall promotion is Get Deals. Donate Meals. PERDUE® plans to donate 1.8 Million Meals to Feeding America through coupon redemption action. Every time you redeem a specially-marked coupon for easy, convenient PERDUE® Chicken Products, Perdue Foods will donate 4 ounces of protein to Feeding America® to help provide a meal through its nationwide network of food banks. I don’t know about you, but I’m all about saving a little money and helping others in the process. A win-win!

Instead of only using a boring taco seasoning mix, think outside the box and jazz up taco night with this full of flavor clean eating Mexican taco meat. Don’t stop with tacos, though, use this tasty Mexican meat for salads, burritos, quesadillas and more. The possibilities are endless!

This taco meat is very kid-friendly- however, if your kiddos or you are sensitive to extra spice, leave out one or both of the peppers, cut the chili powder down to 1 teaspoon and use more tomato sauce than salsa. This recipe is super versatile, so just adjust according to your family’s preference.

Oh, we had these on Monday and loved them. I had ground turkey and homemade zucchini salsa,which was a bit tangy but sooo good. It was indeed a quick and tasty meal. And I left out the jalapenos, didn’t have any and they would have been too much for the kids anyway. Thank you.
